Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

Chapter 435 - Get-together

CHAPTER 435

"Judging by who she is, it would be hard to deal with her. She has some strings she can pull even if you want to send her to jail. So in the end, she may just still go scot-free."

He was right though, but Li Jing had carefully thought about it. This current event and the previous one she did, was already groundbreaking. Her sins had piled up and spilt. There was no escaping this time and she did not intend to be lenient either.

"Is that so? Not this time, at least. I have forwarded to my second grand uncle and my fourth grand-uncle all the recordings concerning her involvement in their brother’s accident. Even if she escapes prison, she must withdraw from the company and can no longer show her face in the family."

"Ohh..."

"Yeah. I would cripple her and cut her chords. All those she is relying on would buy them off, by presenting to them an almost irresistible offer. In the end, it would be siding with me, the leading CEO or my grand auntie, one who doesn’t have any backing."

"Brilliant. You are learning fast about the business world."

"Of course I am. I don’t have a top-notch brilliant husband for nothing."

"Glad I could teach."

"Thanks."

"How is your grandfather by the way?"

"Umm, I would get information when I return home. A new Doctor has been sent for. So we would start by detoxifying his body of whatever toxic substances was put in. I believe with two weeks he should be back on his feet."

"Alright, dear. Wait, two weeks! So you mean for two weeks I would not be seeing my wife!"

****

Things went on for Li Jing as usual. She succeeded in informing her relatives about what Hu Qi had done and filed a case against her. However just as Ye Cheng had foreseen, she did not spend time in prison and was released.

But one thing was sure, she was banned from coming to the Lin residence while it lasted.

"My lovely niece, how are you?"

Li Jing turned around when she heard that familiar voice. It had been a while and if truth be told, she did miss her auntie and uncles.

"Auntie, Huilang!" Her face lit up instantly and she rushed up to hug her, enveloping her in a bear hug.

"Hahaha, if it isn’t my darling Li Jing. How are you dear?" Lin Huilang asked when they finally separated from their hug.

"Better now that you are here."

"So, only the ladies get to enjoy hugs from their favourite grandniece?" A masculine voice called out.

She looked to her side and standing there were her two loveable granduncles.

"Uncles! You came!"

"Of course we would come. I would not miss another family reunion to see my darling grand-niece now, would I?" Lin Jie responded with a bright smile.

Indeed it had been a while since he last laid eyes on Li Jing. In fact, the last time he spoke to his own brother was on her issue concerning the arranged marriage and even though Li Jing ran away and went to marry Ye Cheng without them being aware, they were glad and did not fault her.

If there was anything, she followed her heart willingly and did what was right. And one thing they were glad about was the fact that she returned even when her grandfather was in crisis to handle things.

"Uncle Jie, I missed you so much."

"So only your uncle is being missed, hmm?" A much older man than Lin Jie muttered under his breath with both hands crossed in front of his chest as he turned his head to the side, raising it.

"Second grand uncle, you know I missed you too. I miss all of you." As she said that, she moved to where they were and enveloped each one in turn in a big bear hug.

"That’s more like it," Lin Liqin voiced out with glee.

"Hmm, Liqin is now being so..."

Before Lin Huilang could complete what she had to say, Lin Liqin shot her a cold glare that she had to swallow up her next words and mouth sorry to him.

He was seen as the cold brother. That was why Huilang was surprised to see him acting co and jovial.

Well, if there was one thing, a lot of mishaps has happened in their family and turned them cold towards each other that family meeting like this rarely happened and even if it did, it was seen as more of a tradition than what really it should mean.

People just came, to show face once in a while and barely spend time before they dash away. Most times only a few graced the occasion till it displeased, Lin Zian and he cancelled the family get together.

"I missed you all, so much and I am sure he did too." As she said the last part, her gaze went up, indicating whom she meant before she looked down again.

"By the way, how is he doing? I am so sorry I could not come sooner," Lin Huilang apologized.

"It is okay, auntie. I understand."

"No, it is not okay. I was away on a business trip abroad and only your uncle was left to manage the business in your city and the others in the country. Sorry, you had to be burdened to handle this matter alone."

"Anything for gramps."

"Aww, you this child! You really are one of a kind. He was the one who annoyed you and wanted to toy with your life and future yet when he was in trouble, you were the first to run to him. Would Quinyang be glad that she birthed such a darling soul?"

Although it seemed as if he joked, one look at Lin Jie, one would see he meant every word he said. He was sad.. What he stated just made him reminisce about the old times and made him miss Lin Quinyang.
